An impossible object is a 2-dimensional figure, which is instantly interpreted as a representation of a 3-dimensional object. Upon further inspection, we see that it is not geometrically possible for such an object to exist. This creates a contradiction, between what we perceive and what we know to be true, leaving the viewer in a state of Aporia. My practice deals very closely with the cognitive dissonance that occurs at moments where our mind fluctuates between intuition and logic. I want my work to exist in the superposition of these two states, so that this mindset can lead us to a higher understanding of the subject. By definition, an impossible shape is one that can not exist in real space, so to look at it is always confounding. In this series, I work directly within these spaces, to try to realize something that is unrealizable.
